Flexible staffer MyWorkChoice lands $3M in funding after eight-state expansion

MyWorkChoice, the contingent workforce solution that makes flexibility work for companies and W-2 employees, is announcing — after explosive growth — the closing of its first growth funding round of $3 million with a group of venture capital investors led by Mallard Capital’s Jeffrey Leck.

MyWorkChoice has solved the challenge for employers to find and retain a stable workforce in a market where nearly a third of hourly employees are absent each day, and 100% on average turn over every two and a half months. In the last quarter alone, MyWorkChoice has expanded into eight states and added new customers including Shutterfly, Nordstrom, DeWalt, and Fossil Group. Thousands of flexible job opportunities through MyWorkChoice are now available in cities across Arizona, California, Indiana, Minnesota, North Carolina, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Texas, with new locations being added rapidly.

“MyWorkChoice is delivering exactly what today’s warehousing, manufacturing, distribution and call center companies need – a ready and trained W-2 workforce that can flex to meet their production and workforce needs,” said Tana Greene, CEO of MyWorkChoice. “After a truly unprecedented two years of growth, we are excited by the continued MyWorkChoice adoption across the United States, and plan to invest further in the current communities where we work to support our customers’ growing needs for flexible workforce solutions.”

“Tana and her team have developed the future of workforce flexibility – from both the worker and the company’s perspective – and with their deep industry backgrounds, you will see MyWorkChoice become a significant force in the contingent workforce industry,” noted Mallard Capital’s Jeffrey Leck.

According to the Harvard Business Review, 96% of employees said they need flexibility in their jobs, yet only 47% reported having access to the types of flexibility they need. By embracing flexibility, MyWorkChoice customers can tap into a customized community of qualified and ready-to-work applicants to meet their contingent workforce needs.

Through a mobile application, MyWorkChoice recruits, screens, trains and schedules a workforce community to meet the scalable needs of its customers. Workers have the ability to view and instantly select shifts in four, six or eight-hour increments to build a schedule that fits their needs – up to 40 hours per week — while creating a culture of performance and accountability evidenced by fill rates of over 95% per shift, per day.

This first round of funding will accelerate the company’s ongoing expansion and penetration into key geographic markets, enabling its customers to engage the diverse and dependable workforce community they need to support their bottom line while eliminating overtime costs.
